Sails DB tables to models export

Question

I was wondering if there is any way to export the DB tables to Sails Models structure, so i can make a instant replica of a current DB in sails and start using the DB with sails.

Its kinds of reverse migration. (DB -> SAILS)

Answer 1

Yes as of only just a couple of weeks now a module has been created to do this for you. At present it is limited to only a couple of database types eg postgresql and mySql however the publisher seems to be actively working on new database conversions also.

To find all the info check here:

I have used it to convert 53 postgresql tables to sails models.
